GALAX GeForce RTX 5090 D Breaks World Records with 3650 MHz Overclock and 36 Gbps GDDR7 Speeds

Okay, so here’s the thing. I stumbled upon this tidbit about GALAX’s RTX 5090 D — and wow, overclocking is a world of its own, right? Like, who knew they could crank it up to 3650 MHz? Mind-blowing. Oh, and these new records in things like 3DMark Port Royal? Insanity.

So, here’s the scoop. Team OGS — these folks are the wizards behind the curtain. They grabbed this shiny NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D, especially from GALAX, and gave it, like, a super jolt of energy. It’s kinda like giving a car NOS, but for GPUs.

Now, the setup was something I’d barely understand in my wildest dreams. I mean, an Intel Core i9-14900KF CPU? Sounds like it’s out of a sci-fi movie or something. They used an ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 APEX Encore motherboard too. Imagine saying that five times fast.

Stavros, who’s a part of Team OGS, explained a bit about it – though honestly, my brain was still trying to catch up. They had this XOC BIOS capable of 2000W! Like, what? And what’s with those 12V-2×6 connectors giving 600W each? Just crazy techy stuff that kinda makes the head spin.

Results? Oh, they went full throttle with it. The RTX 5090 D went to a whopping 3650 MHz in the GPUPI benchmark, wrapping that task up in 39.434 seconds. Ain’t that something? Even the memory was overclocked to 36 Gbps – which is, apparently, way faster than its usual pace. So, the data bandwidth just skyrocketed from 1.792 TB/s to 2.304 TB/s. Numbers that big just make my eyes cross.

But the big picture, I think, is how teams like OGS are shoving the limits of what GPUs can do. And the wildest part? This was just a taste! The regular RTX 5090s haven’t even gotten to this party yet. Imagine the chaos when they do.

Anyway, my brain’s still kinda reeling from all this stuff. But I guess if there’s one thing I learned, it’s that overclockers like their GPUs fast and furious. Cheers to that, I suppose! 🖥️🔥
